Walpole, MA
Being in the real estate industry, my team and I have closed hundreds of transactions with Alavi and Braza. So, when it was time to purchase a house for my own family, there was no other real estate firm I would trust with my own transaction. Their team stays on top of the whole transaction and make the process EASY and FUN! I’ve seen it with my clients and finally was able to experience it first hand. I’ve worked with good real estate attorneys throughout my career, however, Alavi and Braza are THE BEST in the business. Thanks to Ali, Gina and their whole team!

Ali and his team were so great! I just closed on my first home in Boston and they made the process as painless as possible. The team is friendly and through. We shared many laughs during the actual close — an enjoyable process — I never would have expected that :)
Thanks to Ali for all of the assistance. Highly recommended!

Selling & Purchasing a home is a stressful experience, especially when you are dealing with both sides at the same time. It is so hard to keep straight what documents need to be signed, what is owed, what is owed to you, reading the legal terms and so much more.
Ali and the entire team at Alavi & Braza did such an amazing job for my husband and I. I cannot thank them enough for being extremely responsive, answering all of the questions we had and making the process so much less stressful.
We had used Alavi & Braza on our re-​finance a couple years ago on referral from our realtor. When it came time to sell our home it was a pleasure to find out that our realtor Kris from Insight Realty had such a great team of people that he worked with which still included Alavi & Braza.
On the sale of our home we were dealing with buyers who did not have an attorney for a first time home purchase/​decided to use a friend. I will advise anyone to use an experienced attorney for your purchase or sale.
Alavi & Braza do not miss a thing and the turn around time on reviewing documents was amazing! Had our buyers had attorneys as great as ours it would have bee absolutely seamless. People talk about closing and how cumbersome it was. For the sale of our home, we didn’t even have to be there. They took care of everything and it was all set. Talk about stress free!
We appreciate all of the work this law office did for us!

Now that I’m settled in my new home, it seems like a good time for a review. Ali & the rest of the team at his law office were great at answering all of the first time home buyer questions I threw at them. I closed on an affordable property, and they handled all of the extra paperwork that came with it diligently as well as giving me some extra help when dealing with my lender being slower than expected. They also respond incredibly fast via email… which is really high on my priority list.

We recently closed on our first home using Ali and his team. They were very responsive and helpful throughout the process, and against all odds made sure we closed on time. Would definitely recommend!

These guys made the impossible happen on a Friday before a holiday allowing me to close on my new condo. Great communication every step of the way. I would use them again in a heart beat.

Charlestown, MA
I worked with Ali on a recent real estate closing. He was good (definitely a step up from previous attorneys I’d worked with) but not excellent. Throughout the process, he was responsive and sent us everything we needed. However on the actual day of closing, he was an hour late. He apologized profusely but still. There was also some confusion about the Homestead and the fee agreed to on the phone v. in person, but Ali was quick to resolve those issues. Despite the minor hiccups, Ali was very approachable and courteous and good at his job.

My husband and I just purchased our first home together and we have nothing but excellent things to say about Attorney Alavi and his team. Attorney Alavi was responsive and knowledgable — he helped us through the process and made it as painless as possible. We are grateful for his counsel and highly recommend him to anyone looking to purchase a home in need of help with the purchase and sale and closing.

I am a real estate agent and I was lucky enough to work with Ali Alavi on one of my first deals. I recommend him to all of my clients and I engaged him for my own house purchase. He is consistently and without fail, efficient, responsive, and takes proactive measures to prevent problems before they happen, making the whole process smoother and more streamlined. He is one of the few lawyers who will take calls after hours when needed, and even answers my questions regarding clients who are not working with him! He goes above and beyond all the time. He also has a fantastic team of people that he can refer you to should you ever need a reference for any kind of service professional. And, last but not least, he is a funny, down-​to-​earth and generous as it gets. A super guy.

Recently Ali and his team helped us the process of purchasing a parking space in downtown Boston. They are knowledgeable, trustworthy, no business is too small for them, we were treated as we were buying a million dollar home. We are very pleased with their service.

Bedford, MA
I worked with Ali and his team during our closing of a house in the NW Boston suburbs back in May. As first-​time home buyers, my wife and I had many questions and curiosities as we went through the process, but Ali was always a step ahead in making sure we had answers to all of our questions as well as preparing us for the next steps. I never imagined closing on a house to be so straightforward and easy as it was with Ali and his team.
Our first contact with Ali was through recommendation of our Buyer’s Agent. As a previous reviewer wrote, I never imagined one would receive such personalized attention as we did with Ali — from the very first conversation, he treated us as if we had known each other for years. After the home inspection, he carefully advised us on what to request in the P & S agreement and followed up to make sure items were complete with the seller’s attorney.
In the period of time between the P & S and closing, Ali and his team were always available at any time for a consultation or a question, no matter how trivial or complicated. The closing was perhaps the best part of the entire process, as Ali came incredibly prepared with all the forms and succinctly explained everything to the precise level of detail we needed so that there were no snags or concerns. Ali is also such a laid back guy, with stories galore of past closings and experiences that had me much more interested in hearing him share stories than actually signing the forms (my wife kept scolding me for not being focused!). Even with this, we were out of there in about 80 minutes, thanks in large part to the preparations of Ali and his team. Since the closing, he has also been helpful in following up with issues that have come up. I highly recommend Ali and cannot imagine a more pleasant experience than the one we had in our recent home purchase.

We highly recommend Ali Alavi for every estate transaction you will have. We worked with him for the 2 estate transactions we did. Each time he was very professional, helpful for all of the transaction’s steps, he is very friendly and we are totally in confidence with him.

Excellent law firm with top notch and responsive customer service. Gina, Ali and their entire team are very knowledgable about the real estate market and made the process of buying my condo seamless. They work extremely hard and are dedicated to each and every client’s needs. I highly recommend this firm if you are in the process of buying a place.

Used Joe Uliano and his team at Alavi & Braza. He was very helpful, responsive and got the job done. When we had a glitch, he stayed on top of it and kept me informed.
Very professional and helpful. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again. While Joe wasn’t able to attend my closing, George Webber, another lawyer in the office, filled in and was terrific. Thank you to the whole team there!

Ali and his team were diligent throughout the process and very trustworthy. I agree with the other reviews that his sense of humor and good nature made the process more fun. I highly recommend his services.

Waltham, MA
I worked with Ali on a recent closing that like many of the commenters below was not exactly typical. I was out of the country for a good portion of the process returning only a week prior to the closing. Ali and his office were very helpful, prompt and knowledgeable about everything we discussed and everything that needed to be done.
When there was confusion during the actual closing, Ali did an excellent job in attempting to rectify the issue and did a fantastic job of explaining everything. He has a great sense of humor and makes the tedious process of signing hundred of forms a bit more bearable.
I would highly recommend him and his office.

West Roxbury, MA
Cannot recommend these guys highly enough. We selected Ali Alavi to be our (buyer’s) attorney, at the recommendation of our real estate agent, Paula Narenkivicius. (Coincidentally, he also represented the mortgage company when we bought our house.) He helped us through the process and was able to answer any questions we had. As nervous first-​time home buyers, he walked us through the whole process at closing to ensure that we understood what was happening and what we were signing. We felt for the amount of work he did his fee was reasonable. His office is quick to respond to phone calls and and e-​mails, and he is very friendly. We would absolutely use his services again!
